There were two jobs in process on December 31,2014: job 11 and job 12:
Direct materials direct labor
Job 11 4870 5100
Job 12 5910 6800
Requirement:
1.Compute the overhead allocation rate
2.Compute the cost of job 11 and job 12 using normal costing
3.Calculate under-or overallocated .
1.
Overhead Allocation Rate = Budgeted manufacturing Overhead Cost / Budgeted Manufaturing Labor Hours |
Overhead Allocation Rate = 315000 /22500 |
Overhead Allocation Rate = $14 per DLH |
2. Hours used in two jobs in process are not provided so cannot provided calculation of cost to jobs in process
jobs 11 | jobs 12 | |
Direct Material | 4,870 | 5,100 |
Direct Labor | 5,910 | 6,800 |
Manufacturing Overhead | = $14 * DLH used | = $14 * DLH used |
Total Cost | =4870+5910+(14*DLH) | = 5100+6800+(14*DLH) |
3.
Manufacturing Overhead Applied = Actual Direct Manufacturing labor hours * Manufacturing Overhead Head |
Manufacturing Overhead Applied = 20000 * $14 |
Manufacturing Overhead Applied = $280,000 |
Actual Manufacturing Overhead Cost = $300,000 |
Manufacturing Overhead Underapplied = $300000-280000 = $20,000 |
